Chapter 556: Water Sect

As we exit the territory of the gu sect, I can't help but be pleasantly surprised. 

I was almost expecting some random enemy to be lying in wait for us. Nope. We make sure to scout it all carefully with Gus, and everything is clear. It's almost too good to be true. I turn to my companion, puzzled. 

[Where do you think our enemies are? Are we getting chased right now or no?] 

"I'm not sure if they lost our track or if they just gave up. Logically there shouldn't be a reason to desire us dead at all cost." 

[Hopefully. Right, I was wondering. Does having a Gu following me around qualifies me as a professional Gu trainer? Did you guys ever think about creating medals or something?] 

"You mean like the Beast Taming guild? I'd say the big difference is that these guys are an organization. Since they have more members and many branch locations, they have no choice but to set a certain set of evaluation criteria."
